Seemed to have only started today (first time out after binning the bike last night)

Not sure if it happens in first but happens in everyother gear for sure.

Whats the likely cause? Was it because of the drop of just worn away? Confused

Bikes done 29k miles if any help...

Anything i should look at?

Dads said a few things about possiblilites, cant rememer what they are now but he said to check to see if it happens in first, first.

Thanks Sad

it may just need adjusting, crap oil in gearbox or just be worn out, depends on how recently you last replaced the clutch or changed oil. think a better test is if is slips all the time or when engine is under load etc

It might be that the cable got kinked in the fall and is not allowing the
clutch to grip in the way it should.

Just an update:

My bike fixes itself!

First the loose connection in the rear light, doesnt happen no more.

And now my clutch no longer slips and i can wheelie again! Shocked

Freaky stuff! Laughing
